THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESUAY; FEBRUARY 8, 1928 The Beauty Spot of Oshawa Oakland Park OAKLAND PARK is without question the choicest undeveloped tract of land within the city limits of Oshawa and is within 5 minutes' walk (2,000 feet) of General Motors Plant. Fronting for over 600 feet on King street (the Kingston Road) at the corner of Wilson Road, it stretches--a beautiful plateau paral- lel with the General Motors Plants and only about a third of a mile east removed therefrom. OAKLAND PARK is a scenically beautiful property -- high and dry, above the adjoining land--and with just enough hill and valley, effect at the rear of the tract to enhance its park-like appearance, OAKLAND PARK is laid out in substantial sized building lots and be- ing entitled to all city improvements it will be developed along high-class lines with a minimum building restriction of $5,000.00 (appraised value), which will insure every lot buyer the kind of residential growth which should rapidly enhance the value of every, Oakland Park lot--and will insure to the home builder that char- acter of neighborhood which is most desired. ] GENERAL ] RNY RRR : VIOTOR. BOUNDARY --CiTvy im T OPPORTUNITY BECKONS YOU NOW One of two motives will no doubt actuate you in the purchase of OAKLAND PARK Property-- Ist--The desire to make a profitable real estate investment. 2nd--The desire to acquire a home-site in a suitable locality, It would be difficult to more perfectly combine these motives than in the PURCHASE of one or more OAKLAND PARK lots, If you are at all SOLD on the future growth of Oshawa, and if you believe the picture of the future Oshawa as outlined in this ad., you will admit that such CLOSE IN property as OAKLAND PARK, properly improved and developed, should have a very rapid enhancement in value, AND If you want a home-site within easy walking distance of your place of business where you will be surrounded by the kind of homes occunied by the kind of people you wish to live NEXT DOOR TO-- then if you know your Oshawa--you will NOT HESITATE. (That Investment you neglected to make never you any money.] g Sales Agent H Will it be a city of 250,000 in a few years? 7,000 Population © «1930 (Estimated). 50,000 Why? ©! "1940 (Estimated). 250,000 Why? WHY the expectation of this enormous growth? Twenty years ago the automobile industry was in its in. fancy-- The General Motors was unborn, Qutside the United States, British Isles and Canada the Motor w practically unknown. vi Today, the automobile is introduced throughout the entire world and the next generation will see probably as many, motors in use in all other countries combined as are today, in use in the United States and Canada. Ww If this prediction is correct, then probably no one reading these lines realizes what this will mean to Oshawa, Can, Oshawa today is Canadian Headquarters for the General Motors and in addition it is General Motors export head- quarters for 104 foreign countries. ot Just ponder a moment on what this means! Three out of every five cars now made in Oshawa go to Foreign Countries. In the United States General Motors cars and products are made in many plants in many cities and wherever a plant is located, there tremendous growth has taken place in population and enormous profits have been made in real estate. Do you now see the picture and its enormous possibilities? All General Motors products made in a great big plant in one city -- OSHAWA -- for Canada, and for 104 other countries where motor car consumption today is just about where it was twenty years ago in the United States and with an appetite just awakening which each year will get more greedy until it will take an Oshawa plant ten times and perhaps twenty times the present size to satisfy, it, and an Oshawa ten times and perhaps twenty times its present size to satisfy General Motors demands, 'And this prediction ignores completely the certain growth of many, if not all of the other manufacturing plants now. located in Oshawa, many of which are the largest indus- tries of their class in Canada, and today employ nearly, one-half as many men as are employed in General Mo- tors, and promise to employ many more in the near future, 'And this prediction ignores completely ilie corfain bility of many other industries allied to General rs and some of the other Factories which will from time to time be attracted to Oshawa because of its many manu- facturing advantages and because SUCCESS begets SUC- ONE THING IS CERTAIN: There never has been in the history of Canada an opportunity to buy real estate in a small place for which so many iron-clad irrefutable ments could be advanced to convince anyone with ary reasoning power, and the slightest vision, that this small City of today should be a big, yes a very big City, ARRY P.
